Evaluating cyclist biometrics to develop urban transportation safety metrics.

The transportation safety paradigm for urban transportation - particularly safety for those walking and cycling - relies on counting crashes to parameterize safety. These objective measures of safety are spatially static and reflective of past events: they can be enriched by including the human response to risk at diverse infrastructure designs. This perceived risk has been well captured qualitatively in the transportation safety literature; in the following study, we seek to develop a quantitative methodology that captures perceived risk as a continuous measure of human biometrics.
